As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, the term “solvate” means a compound provided herein or a salt thereof that further includes a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount of solvent bound by non-covalent intermolecular forces. Where the solvent is water, the solvate is a hydrate.

A “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient,” refers to a substance that aids the administration of an active agent to a subject by for example modifying the stability of an active agent or modifying the absorption by a subject upon administration. A pharmaceutically acceptable excipient typically has no significant adverse toxicological effect on the patient. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include, for example, water, NaCl (including salt solutions), normal saline solutions, ½ normal saline, sucrose, glucose, bulking agents, buffers, binders, fillers, disintegrants, lubricants, coatings, sweeteners, flavors, alcohols, oils, gelatins, carbohydrates such as amylose or starch, fatty acid esters, hydroxymethycellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidine, and colors, and the like. One of skill in the art will recognize that other pharmaceutical excipients known in the art are useful in the present invention and include those listed in for example the Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients, Rowe R. C., Shesky P. J., and Quinn M. E., 6^(th) Ed., The Pharmaceutical Press, RPS Publishing (2009). The terms “bulking agent”, and “buffer” are used in accordance with the plain and ordinary meaning within the art.

As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, the term “about,” when used in connection with doses, amounts, or weight percent of ingredients of a composition or a dosage form, means dose, amount, or weight percent that is recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art to provide a pharmacological effect equivalent to that obtained from the specified dose, amount, or weight percent is encompassed. Specifically, the term “about” contemplates a dose, amount, or weight percent within 30%, 25%, 20%, 15%, 10%, or 5% of the specified dose, amount, or weight percent is encompassed.

As used herein, “administer” or “administration” refers to the act of physically delivering a substance as it exists outside the body into a subject. Administration includes all forms known in the art for delivering therapeutic agents, including but not limited to topical, mucosal, injections, intradermal, intravenous, intramuscular delivery or other method of physical delivery described herein or known in the art (e.g., implantation of a slow-release device, such as a mini-osmotic pump to a subject; liposomal formulations; buccal; sublingual; palatal; gingival; nasal; vaginal; rectal; intra-arteriole; intraperitoneal; intraventricular; intracranial; or transdermal).

An “effective amount” is an amount sufficient to achieve the effect for which it is administered (e.g., treat a disease or reduce one or more symptoms of a disease or condition). Thus, administration of an “amount” of a compound described herein to a subject refers to administration of “an amount effective,” to achieve the desired therapeutic result. A “therapeutically effective amount” of a compound described herein for purposes herein is thus determined by such considerations as are known in the art. The term “therapeutically effective amount” of a composition described herein refers to the amount of the composition that, when administered, is sufficient to treat one or more of the symptoms of a disease described herein (e.g., cancer).

6.2 Summary of Compound 1 Animal Pharmacokinetics (PK) Formulation Development Study

Compound 1 is a basic moiety, and has a pH-dependent solubility profile. Under a normal gastric pH range, the solubility and bioavailability is expected to vary, leading to intra- and inter-patient PK variability. In-vitro and in-vivo evaluations of various Blend in Capsule (BIC) formulations were undertaken to minimize the pH dependence on the drug substance release.

A systematic formulation development was undertaken and resulted in the selection of three formulations (conventional formulation (F4-1 in Table 11) (A), enhanced formulation (F15, Table 27) (B), and spray dried dispersion (Entry 1, Table 1-Table 2) (SDD) (C)) for evaluation in a dog PK study. Formulation A (conventional excipients) demonstrated the highest variability in exposure, and a reduction of exposure at increased gastric pH. Formulation C (SDD) showed the highest exposures, but had a modest reduction of exposure at increased gastric pH.

Formulation B was recommended as the basis for First In Human (FIH) formulation development. Combining an acidifier (e.g. citric acid) and surfactant (e.g. sodium lauryl sulfate) provided a synergistic effect, by controlling local pH and enhancing drug solubility concurrently. Both formulations B and C demonstrated the potential to mitigate gastric pH impact. Formulation C utilized an amorphous SDD drug product intermediate.

6.3 Study 1 Prototype Formulations

Seven Compound 1 blends were prepared via the process listed in FIG. 1 for drug release (dissolution) evaluation. The compositions of each blend are shown in Table 3. The functional excipients were grouped into three classes: acidifiers (tartaric acid, fumaric acid, and citric acid), precipitation inhibitors (PEG4000 and hydroxypropyl cellulose), and solubilizer (hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin).

Dissolution condition 1 (Table 4) was used to evaluate the release of Study 1 formulations (Section 6.3) in gelatin (FIG. 2) and HPMC (FIG. 3) capsule shells. Two stage dissolution condition 2 (Table 5) was also used to evaluate the release of Study 1 formulations in gelatin (FIG. 4) and HPMC (FIG. 5) capsule shells.

Conclusions from Study 1 include the elimination of excipients (tartaric acid, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and HP-β-CD) from consideration due to an undemonstrated ability to mitigate gastric pH impact as determined by the percentage of drug release.

Compound 1 precipitated during the buffer stage (pH 6.8) of the 2-stage dissolution in F1-2 gelatin capsules (tartaric acid).

F1-5 (PEG4000) percentage released was low in FaSSIF conditions.

F1-6 (HPC) percentage released was low in both FaSSIF and 2-stage dissolutions.

6.4 Study 2 Prototype Formulations

Six Compound 1 blends were prepared according to the process set forth in FIG. 1 for drug release (dissolution) evaluation. The compositions of each blend are shown in Table 6. The formulations were evaluated based on the combinations of various functional excipients, i.e., surfactant (SLS), acidifier+precipitation inhibitor (fumaric acid or citric acid+PEG4000), acidifier+surfactant (citric acid+SLS), precipitation inhibitor+surfactant (PEG4000+SLS), acidifier+precipitation inhibitor+surfactant (citric acid+PEG4000+SLS). See Table 7.

In addition to the above six enhanced formulations, one formulation containing Compound 1 spray dried dispersion (SDD) blend was also prepared for drug release (dissolution) evaluation. The composition of the SDD formulation blend is shown in Table 7.

The SDD intermediate was prepared by the following procedures: Compound 1 was dissolved in acetone in Vessel 1. HPMC and TPGS were dissolved in water (heated to about 80° C.) in Vessel 2. Then the API in acetone solution was added to HPMC/TPGS aqueous solution at a ratio of 4:6 and mixed into a clear and homogeneous solution. The solution was then fed into Buchi B-290 under specified flow rate and inlet temperature. The SDD intermediate powder was obtained in the collection vessel.

Ten grams of formulation blend was prepared according to the process set forth in FIG. 1 where Compound 1 was the SDD.

Dissolution condition 1 (Table 4) was used to evaluate the release of Study 2 formulations in gelatin (FIG. 6) and HPMC (FIG. 7) capsule shells. Dissolution condition 3 (Table 8) was also used to evaluate the release of Study 2 formulations in gelatin (FIG. 8) and HPMC (FIG. 9) capsule shells.

Among the formulations provided in Table 6, SLS alone (F2-3) and combined with acid (F2-4) or polymer (F2-5) provide a superior percentage released as compared to other formulations, suggesting that SLS is important for quick and immediate release of Compound 1. Combination of acid and polymer (F2-1, F2-2) does not offer synergistic effects. Likewise, combination of SLS, acid, and polymer (F2-6) does not result in the complete release of Compound 1 in gelatin capsules until the infinity time point, and has slightly slower release in HPMC capsules. Therefore, PEG4000 does not improve the drug substance release and was therefore eliminated from further evaluation. SDD (F2-7) has a slower release profile, but completely releases prior to infinity.

Solubility of Compound 1 was determined in various percentages of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). 0.03% SLS was selected as the media for dissolution condition 3. Samples were filtered using a 0.2 μm nylon syringe filter, and analyzed by UPLC-UV utilizing the method parameters listed in Table 9.

6.5 Study 3 Prototype Formulations

Study 3 included capsules prepared in Studies 1 and 2. F3-1 was F1-1 from Study 1 filled into Size #00 white opaque gelatin capsules. F3-2 was F1-4 from Study 1 filled into Size #00 white opaque gelatin capsules. F3-3 was F1-3 from Study 2 filled into Size #00 white opaque gelatin capsules. F3-4 was the pure SDD intermediate powder filled into Size #00 white opaque gelatin capsules. Due to the low bulk density of the SDD intermediate, the maximum amount of 108.08 mg was filled into the capsule shell, equivalent to 40 mg dose of Compound 1 free base. F3-5 was F2-7 from Study 2 compressed into a tablet. 200 mg of F3-5 blend was compressed into a single tablet by a Carver Press using 2000 lb compaction force and a standard flat-faced tooling. F3-6 had similar formulation components as F3-5, but with an increased level of disintegrant (Kollidon CL) at 10% instead of 4%. F3-6 was prepared in the same way as F2-7 was prepared in Study 2. In order to compare its dissolution profile with F3-4 and F3-5, F3-6 had 200 mg of blend filled into Size #0 gelatin capsules to render the same dose strength of 40 mg as in F3-4 and F3-5. The compositions of each blend are shown in Table 10.

As no major difference in dissolution performance was observed between gelatin capsules and HPMC capsules of the same formulation in Study 1 and Study 2, gelatin capsule was selected in the subsequent dissolution evaluations. Dissolution condition 3 (Table 8) was used to evaluate the release of Study 3 formulations (FIG. 10). Study 3 includes gelatin capsules prepared in Studies 1 and 2, and analyzed using dissolution method 3, also used to evaluate Study 2 samples (FIG. 8).

F3-1 was prepared in Study 1, as F1-1. F3-2 was prepared in Study 1, as F1-4. F3-3 was prepared in Study 2, as F2-3. F3-4 contained only SDD intermediate filled into capsules. F3-5 was prepared in Study 2, as F2-7 SDD, and was compressed into a tablet. F3-6 was a new SDD formulation (with increased disintegrant level) for Study 3.

F3-3 demonstrated the fastest drug release among all the six formulations, confirming the conclusions from Study 2, i.e., SLS made key contributions to the enhanced drug release profile. F3-2 (Citric Acid) demonstrated similar dissolution profile as that of F3-1 (Conventional), implying that acid alone is not as effective as SLS to enhance the drug dissolution. The dissolution of the new SDD formulation F3-6 was improved as compared to the original SDD formulation, most likely due to the increased level of disintegrant in the formulation. However, it was still slower than F3-3, the enhanced formulation with SLS. F3-5 (SDD tablet) did not disintegrate, and the addition of a super disintegrant (e.g., Ac-Di-Sol, croscarmellose sodium) would likely be advantageous to drug release if a tablet formulation is investigated in the future.

6.6 Study 4 Prototype Formulations

Study 4 evaluated acidifier, surfactant, and combinations of acidifier and surfactant. Seven Compound 1 blends were prepared according to the process set forth in FIG. 1 for drug release (dissolution) evaluation. The compositions of each blend are shown in Table 11. In this study, drug loadings were reduced from 26.7% (50 mg dose) to 13.36% (20 mg dose), and fill weight set to 200 mg in order to match the dose strength required in the animal PK study.

Dissolution condition 3 (Table 8) was used to evaluate the release of Study 4 formulations in gelatin (FIG. 11) capsule shells.

Citric acid+SLS (F4-5) formulation was superior to the other formulations in dissolution release, although the difference is not significant under the dissolution conditions used. The dose strength in Study 4 was reduced from 50 mg per capsule used in Studies 1-3 to 20 mg per capsule in order to mimic the dose strength used in the subsequent animal PK study.

Disintegration of SDD capsules (F4-7) is slow due to the high amount of apolar HPMC in the spray dried intermediate.

F4-1 (conventional), F4-5 (enhanced: citric acid+SLS), and F4-7 (enabled: SDD) are selected for a 1 month stability assessment (Section 6.7) and evaluation in a dog PK Study (Section 6.8).

6.7 Preliminary Stability Results for Selected Capsule Formulations

Three selected formulations from Study 4 (Section 6.6) were evaluated for stability in open dish conditions. Assay and impurities were evaluated for storage up to 1 month at 25° C./60% RH and 40° C./75% RH. Liquid Chromatography was used to evaluate the samples.

Shaded cells = changed observed; ND = not determined

No significant changes in assay were observed with the exception of F4-5, 1 month 40° C./75% RH condition. As there was no change in impurity profile, this result was likely related to capsule fill weight or the extraction procedure utilized in the assay method.

No significant changes (≥0.10%) were observed for impurities in any of the formulations. F4-5 had equivalent impurity values (none≥QL). F4-1 and F4-7 each had one impurity that grows >QL at the 40° C./75% RH condition. The F4-1 impurity (RRT 0.96) result was not replicated in the 1 month 40° C./75% RH sample, and was likely not sample related. The F4-7 impurity (RRT 0.89) result did replicate in the 2 week and 1 month 40° C./75% RH samples, and was likely sample related.

Acceptable stability was demonstrated for the three formulations when stored for 1 month at 25° C./60% RH and 40° C./75% RH.

6.8 Dog PK Overview

Three formulations were tested in an animal PK Study to assess exposure and identify a lead first in human formulation.

In the study, 15 fasted male dogs (5/group) were administered two doses of pentagastrin (0.006 mg/kg) to increase gastric acid secretion via the intramuscular route separated by a period of 60 minutes. A single 20 mg Compound 1 capsule (equivalent to ˜2 mg/kg) was administered 30 minutes following the second pentagastrin dose.

Following a washout period of 1 week, all animals were fasted and administered an oral dose of 40 mg famotidine to inhibit stomach acid production approximately 30 minutes prior to administration of a single 20 mg Compound 1 capsule.

The gastric pH of each animal was measured prior to pretreatment, and prior to Compound 1 dosing. Blood samples were collected from each animal to obtain Compound 1 concentrations.

The formulations tested in the Study are described in Table 11, and summarized below.

F4-1: Conventional formulation: 10% Compound 1

F4-5: Enhanced formulation: 10% Compound 1+10% citric acid+5% SLS

F4-7: Enabled formulation: spray-dried intermediate (10% active, 14.8% HPMC, 2.8% TPGS) with conventional excipients

Table 13 listed the gastric pH and PK results for the study. FIG. 12, FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 showed the plasma concentration of Compound 1 over a 24 hour post dose time. FIG. 15 showed the comparison in AUC and C_(max) across the three different formulations in the two pH-controlled dog groups.

Average for each group and range reported. ²Tmax values are reported as median (range), while other parameters are reported as mean ± SD (n = 5).

The conventional formulation (F4-1) exhibited the highest variability in exposure between two pH treatment groups, and is not proposed as the FIH formulation.

The enabled formulation (F4-7) containing the SDD demonstrated higher C_(max) and AUC than the enhanced formulation (F4-5), and demonstrated less variability in comparison to F4-1.

The enhanced formulation (F4-5) containing the crystalline API demonstrated the most consistent C_(max) and AUC values at both low and high gastric pH conditions. The average C_(max) and AUC values were approximately equivalent to F4-1, and the average AUC was 75% and C_(max) was approximately 65% of the F4-7 results.

The enhanced formulation was selected for the FIH formulation due to more consistent PK results over the pH range studied and the elimination of the manufacture of the spray dried dispersion (SDD).

6.9 Conclusions

Clinical exposure to Compound 1 could vary based upon patient stomach pH. A systematic formulation development was undertaken to minimize the impact of gastric pH variability on exposure, thereby reducing intra- and inter-patient PK variability.

An enhanced formulation containing citric acid and sodium lauryl sulfate demonstrated minimal variability in exposure upon gastric pH change in an animal PK study.

The enabled formulation containing the SDD had the highest overall exposure, and showed moderate exposure variability with gastric pH. Given the dose range of interest in clinical studies, it is the exposure variability rather than the absolute exposure that is of most interest. The formulation required an additional spray drying step in the manufacturing process and offered little advantage over the enhanced formulation.

6.10 Summary of Compound 1 First in Human Formulation (FIH) Development Study

Compound 1 is intended for the treatment of colorectal cancer. A big portion of the patient population who take proton pump inhibitors (PPI) may exhibit higher gastric pH than normal patients. Compound 1 has a pH dependent solubility profile, resulting in potential intra- and inter-patient PK variability. Blend in capsule formulation development was undertaken to minimize the pH dependence on the drug substance release.

An enhanced formulation combining an acidifier (citric acid) and surfactant (sodium lauryl sulfate) for control of local pH and enhancing drug solubility exhibited minimal change in Compound 1 exposures in dogs pretreated with pentagastrin (increases gastric acid secretion) or famotidine (inhibits stomach acid production). This formulation was the starting composition for FIH formulation development studies.

Systematic development and evaluation (stability and dissolution) of formulations containing conventional excipients, acidifiers, surfactants, antioxidants, and lubricants was performed. The combination of surfactant and acidifier improved the chemical stability over just the surfactant, with fumaric acid having better chemical stability than citric acid. Formulations containing citric acid (low dose in gelatin capsules) showed capsule shell breakage at accelerated stability condition. Therefore, fumaric acid was selected as the acidifier in lieu of citric acid in the formulation. Based on the accelerated stability assessment program (ASAP) data, the FIH formulation had a projected shelf life of three years at room temperature, irrespective of packaging and desiccant addition.

The addition of surfactant and acidifier to a conventional formulation reduced the differences in dissolution release profile across the physiological pH range, with the pH 6.8 buffer system having the fastest release. Inter capsule dissolution release variability was noted in formulations containing fumaric acid and sodium laureth sulfate filled into HPMC capsules shells. It should be noted that the dissolution variability was drastically minimized when the same formulation was filled into Gelatin capsule shells. Thus, Gelatin capsule shells were recommended for this formulation.

The FIH formulations had been successfully scaled to 2 kg. The clinical dose range is 1 to 150 mg, and a common blend may not cover the entire range. Additionally, the needle particle morphology of the drug substance resulted in poor flow for high drug load blends. Initially, three capsule strengths (1, 5, and 25 mg) were targeted, however in balancing drug load for a passable flow, and capsule size, the highest capsule strength was reduced to 20 mg. Blend flow, stratified capsule homogeneity, and sticking on the tamping pins may be manufacturing challenges, and were monitored during development.

6.11 Introduction

The objective of the Compound 1 first in human (FIH) development program was to create a phase-appropriate immediate-release, solid oral dosage form and manufacturing process that consistently meets safety and efficacy requirements of the Quality Target Product Profile (QTPP) throughout the product's intended shelf life.

A prototype blend in capsule (BIC) formulation was selected based on previous animal PK studies as a starting point for FIH formulation development. Information from an initial Target Product Profile (TPP) was used as the design basis for the drug product, which is summarized in Table 14.

TABLE 14 Target Product Profile (Initial for FIH) Dosage Form Solid oral (formulated blend in capsule) Dose Target range 1 to 150 mg, obtained from multiple dosage form strengths Storage Room temperature

Table 15 represents a contemporary form of the Quality Target Product Profile, and lists the type of information that was used to provide further guidance during FIH formulation development.

6.12 Formulation Development and Evaluation

Based upon a dog PK study, an enhanced formulation blend (F4-5) containing an acidifier and a surfactant in gelatin capsules (Table 16) was selected as the base formulation for FIH formulation development. A one-month stability study of F4-5 showed no change in the impurity profile after storage at 25° C./60% RH and 40° C./75% RH.

6.13 Selection of Dose Strengths and Drug Loadings

The projected clinical dose range is 1 to 150 mg, and three dosage form strengths (1, 5, and 25 mg) were targeted.

A preliminary evaluation of several drug loadings was conducted based on the bulk density and potential dosage unit size of the resulting blends (Table 17). Given the lower limit of capsule fill weight of 75 mg from the processibility perspective, the lowest drug loading was determined to be 1.8% for a dose strength of 1 mg. The desired capsule size is size 1 or below from patient compliance perspective. Therefore, the “common blend” approach was deemed not applicable for dry blending process. As a result, the drug loadings of 6.8% and 22.5% were selected for a dose strength of 5 mg and 25 mg respectively. The low drug loading of 1.8% and the high drug loading of 22.5% were evaluated from the chemical stability perspective and the dissolution perspective, respectively, in subsequent formulation development studies.

6.14 Evaluation of Formulation Stability and Dissolution

The base formulation (Table 16) selected from the animal PK study was optimized in order to achieve the desired formulation stability and dissolution profile. Experiments were performed to determine the appropriate types and levels of excipients to incorporate into the FIH formulation.

6.15 Impact of Excipient Level on Dissolution

10% citric acid and 5% SLS were used in the base formulation. In order to optimize the level of excipients, six 25 mg formulations in gelatin capsules: F18-1 (conventional) as the control, and varying levels of an acidifier (citric acid—CA) and surfactant (sodium lauryl sulfate—SLS) were prepared (Table 18). Dissolution of each formulation in pH 6.5 FaSSIF media was evaluated and the results are listed in Table 19 and plotted in FIG. 16.

Dissolution conditions: 900 mL FaSSIF, apparatus I (basket), 100 rpm. FaSSIF=fasted-state simulated intestinal fluid (pH 6.5 and contains 3 mM Sodium Taurocholate, 0.75 mM Lecithin).

The slowest dissolution was the conventional formulation (F18-1) without acidifier or surfactant. F18-6 (5% CA and 2.5% SLS) had the fastest release profile, slightly faster than F18-5 (5% CA and 5% SLS). Both showed faster release than F18-2 (1% SLS), F18-3 (2.5% SLS), and F18-4 (5% CA), indicating a synergistic effect of the acidifier in combination with the surfactant on drug dissolution. The release profiles with the surfactant level of 1% was comparable to that with 5% SLS. Therefore, a base formulation containing 5% CA and 1% SLS was selected for subsequent formulation development studies.

6.16 Stability Studies with Various Diluents, Acidifiers, Antioxidants, and Lubricants

Stability studies evaluating the various components of the formulation were studied.

Citric acid (CA) and stearic acid (SA) showed degradation in the excipient compatibility study. Therefore, alternative acidifiers and lubricants were evaluated to mitigate potential stability risks. Formulation F20-1 (conventional) is the control; and 8 additional formulations were prepared. F20-2 contains CA+SLS; F20-3 and F20-4 include either butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) or sodium metabisulfite (SMB) as an antioxidant; F20-5 and F20-6 contain either CA or SLS; F20-7 includes an alternative acidifier (fumaric acid); F20-8 and F20-9 include an alternative lubricant stearic acid or sodium stearyl fumarate (SA or SSF).

Formulation compositions are listed in Table 20. Formulations were encapsulated into hard gelatin capsules. Capsules were packaged in heat-induction sealed HDPE bottles (7 count per bottle) and staged on stability at 50° C./75% RH.

6.17 Assessment of Compound 1 Form Conversion

Formulations were assessed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) initially and after 1 month storage at 50° C./75% RH to evaluate for Compound 1 polymorphic form conversion or disproportionation of the citrate salt (Table 21). Disappearance of drug peaks at the lower diffraction angles was observed, but a form change from Form B to Form A or salt disproportionation is challenging to detect at the 1.84% drug loading level. XRPD was also performed on higher DL conventional and enhanced formulations (22% DL). No evidence was observed of form change or salt disproportionation.

6.18 Capsule Appearance

Capsule appearance was evaluated after 1 month storage at 50° C./75% RH. All the formulations containing CA showed significant capsule shell breakage. Citric acid is hygroscopic, and it was suspected that the moisture uptake results in brittleness of capsule shells.

6.19 Chemical Stability

Degradation (RRT 0.88) was only observed for formulations F20-1, F20-6, F20-7 after 1 month storage at 50° C./75% RH (Table 22). These formulations do not contain citric acid. RRT 0.88 degradation product formula by mass spectrometry is C₂₄H₂₆Cl₃N₇O₂. This corresponds to a loss of hydrogen fluoride. This impurity has been observed in alkaline conditions.

No degradation was observed in formulation (F20-2).

6.20 Stability Studies with Two Acidifiers and HPMC/Gelatin Capsule Shells

Five 1 mg formulations encapsulated in gelatin or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) capsule shells were manufactured and evaluated for stability. F20-2, F20-5, F20-6, and F20-7 were previously described in Table 20: A new formulation, F23-14, contains the acidifier fumaric acid (FA), which was substituted for citric acid. The formulations are listed in Table 23.

Capsule appearance and formation of degradation product RRT 0.88 were monitored for stability, and results up to 3 months are provide in Table 24.

Formulations F20-2 and F20-5 containing citric acid and encapsulated in gelatin capsule shells showed capsule brittleness after 3 months at 40° C./75% RH and capsule breakage after 1 month at 50° C./75% RH. No change in appearance was noted for any other formulation of capsule shell.

Formulation F6 containing SLS and no acidifier had the highest level of RRT 0.88 degradation product. Addition of acidifier improved the chemical stability. F23-14 (FA+SLS) formulation showed lower levels of RRT 0.88 than F20-2 (CA+SLS) formulation.

F23-14 (FA+SLS) and F20-7 (FA) in HPMC and gelatin shells, and F20-5 (CA) in HPMC shells showed acceptable accelerated stability results.

An accelerated stability assessment program (ASAP) was performed on formulations blends F23-14 (FA+SLS) and F20-5 (CA) (Table 25). Formulation F23-14 demonstrated lower levels of RRT 0.88 degradation product throughout study.

A humidity corrected Arrhenius equation (i.e., ASAP Prime version 4.0.1) was used to assess the stability results. Activation energy (Ea) and the moisture sensitivity (B) to degradation were assessed and are listed in Table 26. B term demonstrated that the formulations have a low to moderate sensitivity to moisture mediated degradation. The activation energy of both formulations were equivalent to lower than other tested formulations (average 27 kcal/mole for 69 formulations tested), and in combination should lead to a stable dosage form. This is borne out with the high probability of meeting proposed shelf life under various scenarios. Based on the model prediction, F23-14 was expected to demonstrate a long-term stability at 25° C./60% RH, with or without desiccant.

Simulations assumed 7 count in a 100 cc HDPE bottle which was heat induction sealed.

6.21 Dissolution of High Drug Load Formulations F10, F12, F13, F15, F16

Five high drug loading (23%) 25 mg formulations were prepared and filled into gelatin capsules. F27-10 (CA+SLS) and F27-11 (conventional) were the controls; and 4 additional formulations were prepared. F27-12 and F27-16 contained either CA or FA; F27-13 contained sodium lauryl sulfate; F27-15 was the same as F10, with FA in place of CA. Formulation compositions are listed in Table 27. The capsules were tested using apparatus I (baskets) at 100 RPM.

TABLE 27 Compositions of 25 mg Formulations Formulation (% w/w) Component F27-10 F27-11 F27-12 F27-13 F27-15 F27-16 API 23.02 Crospovidone 4 Aerosil 200 0.6 Magnesium 1 Stearate Avicel PH102 16.35 17.85 16.60 17.60 16.35 16.60 Mannitol 49.04 53.54 49.79 52.79 49.04 49.79 Citric acid 5 0 5 0 0 0 SLS 1 0 0 1 1 0 Fumaric acid 0 0 0 0 5 5 Fill Weight 150 (mg) SLS = sodium lauryl sulfate

The release profiles of each formulation in 0.1 N HCl (FIG. 18), pH 4.5 acetate buffer (50 mM) (FIG. 19), and pH 6.8 phosphate buffer (50 mM) (FIG. 20) are provided.

At low pH, Compound 1 was soluble (˜1.7 mg/mL). The formulations were grouped, with the conventional (F27-11) releasing slightly faster than formulations containing just FA (F27-16) or CA (F27-12). The formulations containing SLS were similarly grouped with F27-10 (CA+SLS) releasing faster than F27-13 (SLS), which had a similar release profile to F27-15 (FA+SLS).

At pH 4.5, Compound 1 (pKa ˜5.1) was less soluble (˜0.25 mg/mL) than in more acidic media. The formulations were grouped, with the enhanced formulations releasing faster than the conventional formulation. For the enhanced formulations, F27-10 (CA+SLS) released faster than F27-15 (FA+SLS) and F27-13 (SLS), which released slightly faster than the FA (F27-16) and CA (F27-12) formulations.

At pH 6.8, Compound 1 had low solubility (0.002 mg/mL at pH 7.3). The formulations were grouped in the same order as pH 4.5, however the spacing between the groups was larger. For the enhanced formulations, F27-10 (CA+SLS) released faster than F27-15 (FA+SLS) and F27-13 (SLS), which released faster than FA (F27-16) and CA (F27-12) formulations.

SLS containing formulations had the slowest release rate at low pH, and the fastest release at pH 6.8. The release profiles were slightly faster for the SLS formulations at pH 4.5 when compared to low pH media. SLS is anionic and Compound 1 (pKa ˜5.1) is cationic in acidic media. It is possible that an ionic interaction is occurring between SLS and the drug substance, creating a neutral species that suppresses the release rate for these formulations.

Dissolution profiles of the 25 mg enhanced formulation (FA+SLS) (F27-15, Table 27) with apparatus I at 100 RPM in 0.1N HCl, pH 4.5 acetate buffer and pH 6.8 phosphate buffer is shown in FIG. 21.

The same dissolution conditions were used to evaluate a conventional formulation for comparison, and the profiles are shown in FIG. 22. A comparison of the profiles showed that the enhanced FIH formulation had a consistent release profile, and had less variability as a function of pH compared to a conventional formulation.

At pH 4.5 and 6.8, the non-SLS containing formulations had a much slower release than at low pH. The combination of acidifier and SLS provided the fastest dissolution at medium and neutral pH and moderate dissolution at low pH.

6.22 Evaluation of Capsule Shell Composition on Dissolution

Formulation F27-15 in Table 27 encapsulated in HPMC and gelatin shells were evaluated at pH 6.8, with and without the addition of 0.05% SLS into the dissolution media.

At neutral pH, high variability in dissolution of Formulation F27-15 in Table 27 was observed in FA+SLS formulation with HPMC capsule shells (25 mg strength) (FIG. 23), but not with gelatin capsule shells (FIG. 24).

0.5% SLS was added to the dissolution media, and high dissolution variability of Formulation F27-15 in Table 27 continued to be observed in FA+SLS formulation with HPMC capsule shells (FIG. 25), but not with gelatin capsule shells (FIG. 26).

The SLS only formulation (F27-13 in Table 27) behaved similarly (HPMC: FIG. 27, gelatin: FIG. 28), however this phenomenon was not observed in CA+SLS formulation (F27-10 in Table 27) in HPMC (FIG. 29).

It was suspected that interaction between FA, SLS, and HPMC capsule shells resulted in the varied drug release.

At the end of dissolution, HPMC capsules retained gel-like, lumpy residual solids in the basket. See FIG. 30. If these gelatinous materials entrapped Compound 1, variable dissolution profiles could result.

6.23 Results

Based on the stability and dissolution result, Formulation F27-15 in Table 27 which contained 5% fumaric acid and 1% SLS and filled in hard gelatin capsule shells had the best overall stability and dissolution characteristics.

6.24 Process Development and Evaluation

The physical properties of the drug substance such as particle size, shape, and surface characteristics can play a role in the manufacturability of the formulation. Compound 1 (citrate salt form B) crystallized in a needle shape.

Needle-like particle shapes have poor powder flow and low densities. Compound 1 had a bulk density of 0.2 g/mL and a tap density 0.38 g/mL. Reduced drug loadings (dilution of the poor flow component) improved flow characteristics of the resultant blend. The flowability of six conventional formulations has been listed in Table 28.

TABLE 28 Flowability Assessment of Six Prototype Formulation Blends Formulation (% w/w) Component F28-1 F28-2 F28-3 F28-4 F28-5 F28-6 Compound 1 1.8 6.74 13.48 22.46 22.46 22.46 Avicel PH102 46.3 43.83 40.46 35.97 23.98 23.98 Mannitol 46.3 43.83 40.46 35.97 47.96 Lactose 47.96 Crospovidone 4 Aerosil 200 0.6 Magnesium 1 Stearate FFC 11.6 5.9 3.2 2.5 2.5 2.5 FFC = flow function coefficient.

Flow function coefficients (FFC) were measured by ring shear. FFC values greater than 5 had good flow properties. Formulations F28-1 and F28-2 were assessed to have good flow properties. The FFC value is directly related to drug loading (F28-1<F28-2<F28-3<F28-4-F28-6). Changing the ratio of Avicel to Mannitol (F28-4 vs. F28-5) or replacing mannitol with lactose (F28-5 vs. F28-6) did not impact flowability.

6.25 600 g Manufacturing Trial 1

Five formulations of various drug loadings were developed (Table 29) to cover the anticipated FIH dose range.

For a 1 mg dose, and a 75 mg weight, the resulting drug load was calculated to be 1.8%. For the 5 mg dose, a fill weight of 100 mg resulted in a drug loading of 6.9%. For the 25 mg dose, a fill weight of 150 mg resulted in a drug load of 23%. Based on the poor flow properties for high drug loading formulations (FFC=2.5, Table 28) a lower DL (13.81%, corresponding to 250 mg fill weight) was also evaluated. A 20 mg dose was also developed, and a fill weight of 250 mg resulted in a drug loading of 11%

Five 600 g trial formulations were manufactured with the process flow shown in FIG. 31.

The 5 formulations covered drug loadings of 1.8-23.0% and 1-25 mg strengths. The bulk and tap densities for each formulation are included in Table 30.

The CU results of F29-1, F29-3, and F29-5 are shown in Table 31. The failed CU data suggest that manual sieving used in the process may not be an effective way to deagglomerate blends, resulting in blend heterogeneity. Additional trials were conducted with an improved process (substitution of a Comil for manual sieve) and were described in the next section.

The 25 mg formulations with drug loading of 13.8% and 23% had poor flow and the encapsulation process was paused several times. A spatula or hammer was used to facilitate powder flow in the feeding hopper. It was concluded that such high drug loading was not suitable for a dry blending process.

When the drug loading was reduced to 11%, the flow was improved. Therefore, the highest dose strength was reduced from an initial target of 25 mg to 20 mg to ensure a good processability and an appropriate capsule size.

6.26 600 g Manufacturing Trial 2

Based on Trial 1 results, two additional 600 g batches were manufactured, one of formulation F29-1 (low drug loading at 1.8%) and the second of formulation F29-5 (high drug loading at 11%) (Table 29). In order to improve the blend uniformity and be more representative of the scale-up process, a Quadro Comil U3 was used for deagglomeration and Bosch GKF702 was used for encapsulation (FIG. 32). The encapsulation parameters for both batches are listed in Table 32.

For both batches, sticking to pin tips was observed. For the 1 mg lot, the sticking was correlated to the hard tamping (pins maxed, maximum tamping).

Good fill weight and content uniformity (CU) results (Table 33) were obtained except for the end samples. This poor CU was attributed to the small batch size rather than segregation, as there was insufficient powder in the feed frame towards the end of the run. Stratified CU samples was tested as the program progresses to confirm this assumption.

Based on the good potency and acceptance value results, the process was scaled to 2 kg technical batches.

6.27 2 kg Technical Batch Manufacturing Trials

One batch each of 1, 5, and 20 mg capsule strengths (F29-1, F29-3 and F29-5) were manufactured at the 2 kg scale. The formulation composition for these batches are shown in Table 34.

The final formulation compositions for FIH are shown in Section 6.28.

The process flow diagram for the manufacture of the 2 kg technical batches is shown in FIG. 33. The encapsulation parameters for the batches are listed in Table 35.

A narrative of the process is listed below.

Weigh out each raw material in individual plastic bags.

Load the dispensed API and excipients except for magnesium stearate into the 8-QT square Bin.

Blend the material for 10 min at 25 rpm.

Charge the Comil with the blended material. Using a 20 mesh Comil screen, pass the blend through Comil at approximately 2800 rpm (40% speed).

Transfer the material into the blender bin. Blend the material for 15 min at 15 rpm.

Pass the dispensed magnesium stearate through a 30 mesh (595 micron) screen directly into screen pan and add to the blender.

Blend the material for 2 minutes at 25 rpm.

Discharge the blend into feeding bowl of Bosch GKF702 Encapsulator.

Set up the Bosch GKF702 Encapsulator with the following Change parts:

a. 75 mg fill, size #4 capsules: 7 mm fixed dosing disk

b. 100 mg fill, size #4 capsules: 12 mm adjustable dosing disk

c. 250 mg fill, size #1 capsules: 19.5 mm adjustable dosing disk

Set encapsulation speed at 90 cycles per minute. Start encapsulation and adjust the machine to provide target weight.

Collect capsules as they are discharged from the Encapsulator on a suitable sieve. As the capsules fill the sieve, use the vacuum to de-dust the capsules. Place the capsules into the tared double polyethylene bag lined container.

Package the bulk capsules in the bag container into 100cc HDPE bottles (7 count per bottle, heat induction sealed).

6.28 FIH Formulation Composition

In review of the data, and taking into consideration stability, dissolution performance, and manufacturability, the enhanced formulation (contain fumaric acid and sodium lauryl sulfate) in gelatin capsule shells was selected for the FIH study. Formulation compositions of the three strengths are listed in Table 43.

6.29 Conclusions

Blend in capsule formulation development was undertaken to minimize the pH dependence on the in vitro dissolution drug release. 1, 5, and 20 mg formulations were developed for FIH clinical trials based on dog PK, in vitro dissolution, manufacturability, and stability studies. The enhanced formulations contained an acidifier (fumaric acid) and surfactant (sodium lauryl sulfate) for control of local pH and enhancing drug solubility. This combination of excipients, leading to the enhanced formulation, reduced the variability in dissolution release profile observed with the conventional formulation in various pH media.

A dry blending process was developed for all strengths. The formulations have been successfully scaled to 2 kg. Acceptable CU was demonstrated for 2-kg batch size. The same process was expected to be tech transferred to a contract manufacturing organization for the manufacturing of 3-kg engineering and clinical trial material (CTM) batches.

This study evaluated the effect of two Spayed-dried dispersion (SDD) formulations Capsule G, Capsule E, Capsule A, and Capsule H on oral exposure of Compound 1 in male CD-1 mice at 10 mg/kg. The SDD formulations had 50% loading of Compound 1. The overall exposure was comparable between the two DSS formulations. The exposure data was also similar to those from the other three tested formulations. Overall, all tested formulations did not improve exposure of Compound 1 in CD-1 mice at 10 mg/kg compared to the standard formulation in CMC/Tween. The results were as expected since solubility/dissolution of this compound was not the major limiting factor to exposure at low dose levels.

6.33 Example 4: Formulation and Stability Study

Solubility Study: Compound 1 free base pKa was determined to be 5.14. Therefore, solubility of Compound 1 is pH dependent: 0.003 mg/ml in water (pH 8.1), 3.5 mg/ml in simulated gastric fluids (SGF) (pH 1.9), 0.002 mg/ml in the simulated intestinal fluids (SIF) (pH 7.3). Solubility in the preclinical formulation, 0.5% CMC/0.25% Tween 80, was determined to be 0.18 mg/ml at pH 8.1. Solubilities of Compound 1 in SGF and SIF under the fasted and fed conditions are listed in Table 53.

TABLE 53 Solubility of Compound 1 Freebase Monohydrate in Bio-relevant Media at 24 Hours Concentration pH @ Vehicles (mg/mL) 24 hr FaSSIF 0.26 6.48 FeSSIF 2.07 4.94 FaSSGF 2.81 1.84 FeSSGF 0.004 6.31

Chemical Stability Study: Solid state stability of Compound 1 free base monohydrate was evaluated at 80° C. for 2 weeks and 40° C./75% RH, 50° C./75% RH and 60° C. for up to 5 weeks. The results indicated that Compound 1 free base monohydrate is chemically relatively stable under all storage conditions and durations.

Physical Stability Study: The free base monohydrate lost water and converted to a dehydrate form after being heated at 60 and 80° C. This dehydrate form converted back to monohydrate immediately when samples were exposed to room temperature and RH>30%. If RH is in the range of 5-30%, the dehydrate form may take 1-3 days to convert back to monohydrate.

6.34 Solution Stability Study

The solution stability of Compound 1 free base in water, SGF (pH 1.3), SIF (pH 7.5), and 0.1N NaOH with and without light protection at 37° C. was tested. The results showed that Compound 1 free base is relatively stable (>95% remaining) in all vehicles for 4 days except for the sample in 0.1N NaOH without light protection. Significant degradation was observed for this sample, only 88% remaining at day 1 and 61% remaining at day 4.

No significant degradation was observed for a 6 mg/mL suspension formulation in 0.5% CMC and 0.25% Tween 80, stored at ambient temperature and 2-8° C. for 7 days.

6.35 Formulation Development

Free Base Monohydrate

To assess the feasibility of using Compound 1 in a capsule to support FIH study, a dissolution study with a capsule containing 125 mg Compound 1 free base monohydrate was performed in the media of 0.01N HCl and 0.001N HCl at 37° C. Capsule shell shrinkage was observed. About 80% Compound 1 was released in 0.01N HCl and only 10% in 0.001N HCl at 60 minutes, suggesting that dissolution of Compound 1 free base monohydrate was highly pH dependent and developing a AIC formulation for freebase monohydrate to support FIH study may be challenging. Blend in capsule or other formulation approaches may be necessary.

Citrate Salt

A dissolution study for citrate salt in a capsule in 0.01N HCl was also carried out. The results as provided in FIG. 59 showed that citrate salt had a better dissolution profile compared to freebase monohydrate suggesting AIC formulation approach to support FIH may be feasible for citrate salt.
